My feeling is that this is just a bit of administrivia. ARIA role has
been integrated into HTML5. While there are people actively working on
proposals which, if adopted, will refine that definition, that work is
being tracked under issue-35/action-138. As I don't believe we need two
issues to track this work, I'm proposing that we close Issue 14 at this
time.
If there are no objections, this issue will be closed on 12 November
(I've given two weeks so as to not overlap with TPAC).
